B. Complete the OWNER REGISTER also located at the beginning of this manual (Serial Number
is located by the hitch piece). REMEMBER TO BRING OWNER REGISTER INFORMA-
TION WHEN ORDERING PARTS.
2. LEVEL THE CART
Before connecting to tractor, determine best vertical location of hitch piece in order to run a level cart:
A. Level the cart front to back.
B. Measure tractor drawbar to determine best vertical location of hitch piece.
3. MAKE TRACTOR TO SPRAYER HOOKUPS
A. Make hitch connection using a draw pin with keeper and safety chain. A spacer between sprayer
tongue and tractor clevis will minimize hitch noise and shock.
B. Retract jack and rotate into storage position.
C. Plug in hydraulics to tractor remote outlets for boom and hydraulic pump operation.
D. Prepare to mount hydraulic switch control box in cab and run cable to rear of tractor.

location. Surface
must be smooth and
clean for suction cups
to attach.
2. If tractor is equipped
with factory accessory
power plug, discon-
nect 3-foot pigtail
lead from control box
and couple to tractor
power plug.
3. For tractors not
equipped with a pow-
er plug connect black
lead to a good ground
and the other wire to a
12-volt keyed power
supply.
4. Route 6 pin connectors through tractor cab to drawbar area and secure in a safe place.
E. Hook all electrical leads to mating connectors near hitch.

WHEN ELECTRIC/HYDRAULIC SWITCH BOX IS PROPERLY INSTALLED AND ENERGIZED
THE GREEN POWER LIGHT WILL GLOW. IF GREEN LIGHT DOES NOT GLOW REVERSE
ELECTRICAL LEADS. A 15 AMP RESETABLE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS PROVIDED ON THE
BOX. IT MUST BE PUSHED IN FOR SWITCHES TO PERFORM THEIR FUNCTION. INDIVID-
UAL SWITCHES WILL GLOW WHEN ACTIVATED.
WARNING!
SPRAYERS EQUIPPED WITH DUAL WHEELS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO RUN WITH OUTSIDE
WHEEL REMOVED. IF SINGLE WHEELS ARE NEEDED OPERATOR MUST REMOVE INNER
WHEELS AND REPLACE WITH OUTSIDE WHEELS. HUB MUST REMAIN IN CENTER OF
WHEEL FOOTPRINT.

SECTION 2 - SPRAYER OPERATION
I. Activate part 3 boom switch and move tractor hydraulics to unfold part 3 booms to eld position.
J. Deactivate part 3 boom switch.
6. ADJUSTMENTS AT BOOM MIDDLE HINGE
A. From boom end, verify that boom sections are lined up.
1. Adjust stop bolts to line up part 1, part 2 and part 3 boom sections.
2. Loosen u-bolts securing outer boom spring latch and adjust latch mechanism to be centered on
the latch pin.
B. Adjust part 2 boom cables, if equipped, so it is tight but not pulling the part 2 section to fold.
C. Adjust part 2 or part 3 boom cylinder attachment spring cushion.
1. Unfold sprayer but do not turn off power to outer most boom fold switch.
2. Manually push on outer boom section to force a breakaway. Outer section should fold back
1-1/2 to 2 feet after collapsing inner spring. Cylinder should not collapse.
3. Adjust inner nut and jam nut to insure a complete unfold.
4. Fold outer section of boom with tractor hydraulics to check if boom folds completely.
5. If booms do not fold completely adjust outer spring to permit complete folding.
6. Once adjustment is centered, tighten equally from each side until there is 3/16 – 1/4” inch
between all spring coils.
CAUTION!
INNER BOOMS MUST BE COMPLETELY UNFOLDED BE-
FORE UNFOLDING OUTER BOOMS. ONCE OUTER BOOMS
ARE MOVED FROM TRANSPORT POSITION A SAFETY
SWITCH IS OPENED PREVENTING FURTHER INNER BOOM
MOVEMENT.
WARNING!
OUTER MOST BOOM SWITCH MUST BE DEACTIVATED FOR BOOM TO BREAK AWAY
WHEN CONTACTING AN OBSTRUCTION. FAILURE TO DEACTIVATE SWITCH WILL
CAUSE PHYSICAL DAMAGE AND POSSIBLY BODILY INJURY. BOOM DAMAGE CAUSED
BY FAILURE TO MAKE BREAK AWAY OPERATIVE WILL NOT BE WARRANTED.

2. Adjust 1-1/2” bolt in or out until boom is level with swinging center.
3. Tighten jam nut to secure adjustment
9. CHECK BOOM LEAD
A. With booms unfolded; manually force booms rearward
to collapse spring clevis on inner boom fold cylinders.
Booms should not move rearward past a line extending
straight out from sprayer boom swinging center.
B. Perform any required adjustment at the part 1 boom fold
cylinder eyebolt.
C. Verify both nuts are tight to secure the adjustment.

contact with transport rest in-
ner stop.
WARNING!
PART 1 BOOM FOLD CYLINDERS ARE MOUNTED WITH A SPRING CLEVIS ASSEMBLY.
THE CLEVIS WILL ALLOW 5/8” OF AN INCH OF CYLINDER MOVEMENT. THE SPRING
MUST BE TIGHTENED TO ALLOW FOR FULL TRAVEL WITHOUT THE COILS COMING
IN CONTACT WITH EACH OTHER.
NOTE!
OUTER MOST BOOMS MUST BE COMPLETELY FOLDED BEFORE ANY INNER BOOMS
WILL MOVE. IF INNER BOOMS DO NOT MOVE VERIFY THAT OUTER BOOMS HAVE
FOLDED COMPLETELY AND CLOSED SAFETY SWITCH LOCATED NEAR RIGHT BOOM
MID-HINGE.
WARNING!
WHEN SPRAYER IS TOWED WITHOUT A TRACTOR, BOOMS SHOULD BE SECURED
TO TRANSPORT RESTS. THIS IS EASILY ACCOMPLISHED BY RUNNING A STRAP BE-
TWEEN OUTER BOOMS NEAR THE TRANSPORT RESTS. CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO
INSURE THE BOOMS REMAIN SECURE WHEN HYDRAULIC POWER IS NOT READILY
AVAILABLE.
